Everything Everywhere Daily - SONAR

One of the most significant developments in the history of naval warfare was the submarine. 

The submarine offered a means of stealth and surprise that surface ships couldn’t compete with. 

At first, navigating submarines was relatively simple, as they traveled just below the surface and used a snorkel and a periscope.

However, as submarines improved and could dive deeper, they encountered a problem. How could they see and navigate?The answer came from nature.

Learn more about SONAR, how it was developed, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Alternate Forms of Space Travel (Encore)

Every single rocket that has ever been launched into space has been a rocket that burned some sort of fuel. 

These chemical fuel rockets have worked well for making the short trip to orbit. Beyond that point, however, they are not necessarily the best option for space travel. 

There are a host of proposed methods for space travel that don’t involve rockets, some of which have already been tested. 

Learn more about alternative forms of space flight and the possible future of space exploration on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - Why Gen Z is feeling ‘money dysmorphia’

A significant portion of young people feel like they aren't on solid financial footing. And yet, the numbers show Gen Z adults on average actually earn more and have more wealth than previous generations did at their age.

This phenomenon has been dubbed (by the internet) as 'money dysmorphia'. Today on the show, we chat with a neuroscientist who co-wrote a book, Look Again, that helps explain this phenomenon.
